Can I have LASIK if I am farsighted?
A patient is farsighted when they can see things at a distance well, but close up objects look fuzzy or blurry. This vision condition happens because the cornea of the eye is too flat and as rays of light enter the eye they do no bend like they should as they come into focus behind the retina.
Dr. Feldman has treated numerous patients for farsightedness with LASIK at her Mission Valley offices in San Diego. To correct farsightedness, small areas are removed at the edge of the cornea. This makes the cornea steeper and allows for light rays to bend more, giving the patient clear vision.
